connection problem to Target F28035 Piccolo with CCS V5.3

For drive a Switched Reluctance Motor i bought following as recommended by TI a TMS320C2000 Experimenter Kit with F28035 Piccolo control card, the kit was arrived with it’s CCS   V5.3 CD installation,

And and for several weeks, I try to connect to the target without success, I used the TI recommendation in http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/C2000_Getting_Started_with_Code_Composer_Studio_v5#Open_the_CCSv4_cpu_timer_project_included_with_controlSUITE_.28www.ti.com.2Fcontrolsuite.29

Namely in this documents TI in internet, it request the method below

To connect to the target:

  1. In the debug window, select the      CPU you wish to connect to.
  • In this example the C28x core       is selected.
  • Right click on the core and      select "Connect Target"
  • Alternative: Select "Run->Connect       Target"
  • Alternative: Use the keyboard       shortcut CTRL-ALT-C

But  no target appears  in the debug windows , could you help me please I try many methods without succecc, I bought also the second experimenter kit, but is ti the same think,

 

Thank you so much in advance

  • Hi Sofiane,

    As far as I understand, you've bought an Experimenter's kit but you're not able to debug any code right? (i.e. not getting connected to the target). Are the drivers installed properly, can you check the device manager?

    Regards,

    Gautam

  • Hello,

    Did you already create/include .ccxml file (Target Configuration file) to your project?

    You can refer to this link to know how to create it

  • Hello Gautam Lyer,

    thank you for your reply, but in the documentation of docking station and a F28x control card, it is mentioned that do not allow Windows to go online to search for drivers, but allow Windows to search our computer for drivers

     

    In device manager it is no trace of the microcontroller

    Thank you

    There won't be any trace of microcontroller but you can observe XDS100 Channel 1 and 2 in the list.
     Check that and also as Maria mentions do check your target configuration file.

    Regards,

    Gautam

  • Hello Gautam and maria, thank you so much for your help,

    I effectively checked and we could look in the devise manager   and it said  :XDS100+RS232 V1.0 in channel 1 and also in channel 2

    , and also in devise  manager  parameters we could read “ drivers not installed (code28)”, normally I thinck it should be installed with the CCS 5 …!!

     

    And for the first  Target configuration with CCS  when we connect the card , I receive this message:

    [Start]

    Execute the command:

    %ccs_base%/common/uscif/dbgjtag -f %boarddatafile% -rv -o -F inform,logfile=yes -S pathlength -S integrity

    [Result]

    -----[Print the board config pathname(s)]------------------------------------

    C:\Users\sofiane\AppData\Local\.TI\693494126\

        0\0\BrdDat\testBoard.dat

    -----[Print the reset-command software log-file]-----------------------------

    This utility has selected a 100- or 510-class product.

    This utility will load the adapter 'jioserdesusb.dll'.

    An error occurred while soft opening the controller.

    -----[An error has occurred and this utility has aborted]--------------------

    This error is generated by TI's USCIF driver or utilities.

    The value is '-600' (0xfffffda8).

    The title is 'SC_ERR_LIB_ANY_LOCATE'.

    The explanation is:

    A required dynamic library could not be located.

    The library isn't on the search path.

    [End]

    I don’t know exactly the sense of the message, but i actually researcher now  where can i found the drivers for XDS100 V1 it is not easy..

    Thank you again

    Sofiane

  • Hi,

    The error "A required dynamic library could not be located. The library isn't on the search path." indicates a library is not properly installed in your customer's system. It may be an install, a disk/file corruption or another problem that is preventing the required libraries from being read by the Test Connection utility. 

    As a troubleshooting start, you may want to look into the directory below and see if the files tixds510cortexA.dvr, tixds510icepick_d.dvr are present or are accessible.

    C:\ti\ccsv5\ccs_base\emulation\drivers

    Also, check the directory below and see if the file jioserdesusb.dll mentioned in the error message you sent is also accessible:

     C:\ti\ccsv5\ccs_base\common\uscif

    In addition to this, can you be sure the windows drivers are properly configured as shown at section 2.5 of the XDS100 page?

  • Thank you very much Gautam, all what you said exist effectively in the CCS CD, in the end i connected in the Manager device, and i did a researches manually for the driver in the computer (C), and  it found them and  have installed itself directly,

    I'm very happy, now I'm try to do some exercise to create files end programing a little program, for after that I will program my work (Switched Reluctance Motor Control),

     

    Thank you again and regards

  • hello Maria,

    Thank you very much for your good advice,  I opened  the Manager device, and i did a researches manually for the driver in the computer (C), and  it found them and  have installed itself directly,
